it_is_me_your_father

So I figured out what the key was to get the abes oddsey -ddcheat thingy to work
Heres how to do it:

1. Create a shortcut to abewin.exe
2. Go to its properties and add the command line -it_is_me_your_father
3. Hold the shift key, and press enter/double click abewin.exe keep shift held until the main men loads
4. Now load a game/start a new one, press tab and away you go, also trying holding scroll lock, and pressing 2 when tab mode is on to view the brain/animation states

Heres a screenie to prove it works

Nice. so you only just thought of disassembling the exe? once you did that its stated quite obviusly that you have to press shift. so it was nice and easy to figure.

No I only just looked at that part of the code, since I've been trying to figure other stuff out. There is millions of lines of asm, it's far from easy.

Sad

I have some bad news... AO must be programmed diffrently or somthing. but I noticed taking sertain characters on diffrent screens corses the game to crash or not work properly. For example. I took a Slig (the one right at the top of that ledge with the bell to ring for elum. and floated him all the way to the cave exit. When I went through I walked onto the next screen... I tryed to operate the lift as the slig.. but instead he just freezes and dose nothing. so I float below the lift and the game freezes. also going on the screen below as abe and floating to the mudokon that says "hi" and you have to whistle to crashes the game if you say Hi while standing directly ontop of him.

And no. you cannot float as Elum. he just freezes but you cant move.
Plus I checked the screen (where you return to rupture farms) at the start of the game and nothing new.. its just the return to rupture farms screen except the Directory dosen't work and the mudokon isun't there.

Basiclly you get the "Yay, you finished the game" screen and movies while abe is still up there so the 2 sligs couldn't get him actually.

...and then it crashes! :P

Actually, without cheating (with Abe) you can go the the lever screen without the shrykull and quickly pull the lever.
The first 2 sligs will shoot you before the FMV starts.
The lever triggers a timer that will get you to the ending screen when it's done, no matter when happens after it, so I didn't except something else.

yeah when I first had the game not trying to save all 99 i'd just pull the lever, get shot and then them FMV would still start

edit: oh by the way there is some way to save screen shots as .tga's from within the game, I couldn't figure out how you do it though, I only got it to work by editing the memory at runtime.. it saved one as SD000006.TGA

Yes, me is curious about some more vids and screenies of this amazing find too. I want to see a Abe inside that pit at the start of the stockyards with that scrab and the mudokon and that will be enough for me.

I went out of my way to take some screenshots for you two. Enjoy.


L0LZ0RS! ABE TELEP0RTED!


Abe now has the power to walk through walls.


Wow. Now he can drop through floors now. This guy never gives up...


He's safe from that nasty-pasty. Meh.


Aw. Peekaboo.


0MG!!1 THE SLIG IS DOING TEH MATRIX!!1


I thought Sligs were too fat to jump.


^^ It can fly. Bless.

I hope it doesn't fall like Abe did. And then this Slig with a shaman mask comes and... Yeah.


Yeah, I should be worried.


It's the Sligs turn to play now.

W0W IT MADE IT!!!1

On the first screen of the Stockyards, if you move Abe to the top in tabbed mode, he'll go back to Rupture Farms. It's odd, I never thought these levels were actually connected.

And Sligs can't use the pullys in the Monsaic Lines.

I tried moving one of the Sligs to the Scrabs, it just dies and goes to Abe before the screen loads. It's the same with the Slog screens in Stockyards.
